Very well known hosting companies, one name comes to mind, promote the UNLIMITED feature to end-users. But that feature is NOT unlimited to resellers. There are many security restrictions and likely a team of techs monitoring your reseller account and the accounts of your resellers. Eventually, one suspension here and another there will get your whole account suspended leaving your clients and your clients' clients hanging. Then those clients get mad and go buy hosting direct from the same provider you bought from!
Nothing is
unlimited but unfortunately nobody buying anything likes to be limited. If a newbie had a choice between buying "unlimited" and "limited" for the same price, which do you think he would go for? Those who are in the know would probably go with a limited plan but most consumers like unlimited sales gimmicks which makes certain companies grow by leaps and bounds.
Furthermore, the current U.S. economy is driving prices down and I have seen shared hosting for as little as $1 a month! To make $1,000 out of that one would have to sell 1,000 accounts! Ridiculous and virtually impossible for a new hosting provider without a track records, customer testimonials and heavy advertising budgets. Now imagine unlimited disk space and bandwidth for $1 a month! Crazy.
I mean to say Just be careful!
